I creaated a new shared mailbox following the online instructions and have created shared mailboxes in the past. It was possible to add the mailbox in Outlook but it indicates that it "Cannot display the folder." Trying to open it in OWA displays a page that says "You don't have permission to open this mailbox."
After creating a distribution group (DG) powershell would not let me use the DG alias to set permissions. It indicated that the alais was not found. It did allow me to set permissions using the DG description but access to the mailbox was still denied.
After waiting over an hour following the creation of the mailbox and group access was still denied.
I was able to grant individual users permissions using their respective e-mail addresses. My question is, do you have any idea why the DG is not working and why the alais referrence to it fails?
Thanks in advance for your replies.
